Health Service Modelling Associates Programme
Don’t forget that you can book time to see me.
Slots are available at
Slots are currently available up until the second week of June.
Pop me a message if you can’t make those times and we can work something out.
Notebook LM is a Google product that allows you to pass in specfic sources that will be used by a generative AI model.
You can feed it a range of sources, including google slides, Youtube vdeos, and webpages.
Because it can be trained on specific sources, you can use it to remind yourself of the HSMA way of doing things.
Notebook LM has the really nice feature of actually referring back to the source it’s used
The ‘deep dive’ feature is a way to get a good summary of complex information like scientific papers.
Don’t put anything private/sensitive in there!
You can’t share your notebook if you don’t have a paid Google AI plan (which is a shame if you’re working in a team)
This repository contains a script to automatically generate documentation from a codebase.
[https://github.com/The-Pocket/PocketFlow-Tutorial-Codebase-Knowledge](https://github.com/The-Pocket/PocketFlow-Tutorial-Codebase-Knowledge]
It’s designed to write beginner-friendly documentation with loads of analogies and clear breakdowns of what is going on.
Documentation is the thing no-one wants to do…
And it always goes out of date!
In addition, if you’re trying to work with someone else’s code, it can be really hard to get your head around how everything is done.
The framework
(I’ve then been converting the output into Quarto for easy integration with existing documentation)
It generates code examples…
And diagrams…
Because of the way this code is designed, you can modify the prompt that gets fed in.
It just lives in text in the nodes.py file.
So you can ask it to make the documentation more or less beginner friendly, or add very specific requests.
Anything you feed into this may be fair game for model training.
And you certainly don’t want to feed in anything that needs to remain private!
But if your repository is already open-source, then you may wish to consider it.
Google’s most advanced model (gemini-2.5-pro-exp-03-25) is currently free for roughly 25 requests a day.
For me, that was enough to generate two sets of documentation per day before hitting the limit.
I’ll put together a quick guide on the ‘how’ in the next few days, but if you’re keen to try it out sooner, have a go at following the instructions in the repository readme (and message me if you get stuck).
